FAST FOOD NEWS: Starbucks Caramelized Honey Latte and Frappuccino

Starbucks’ new Honey Caramelized Honey Latte was created with the moody nature of the spring season in mind. Sometimes it’s cold, wet, and the sun is being antisocial by hiding behind clouds. When there are days like that, you can get a hot Caramelized Honey Latte. And sometimes it’s hot, sunny, and you wish the sun would turn it down a bit. For those days, you can get the beverage in iced or Frappuccino form.

What makes these beverages special is the caramel honey sauce that’s been slow-cooked for 45 minutes, which is 12 hours and 15 minutes less than the last fast food product that shared how long it was cooked for. All three versions feature the slow-cooked sauce, Starbucks’ espresso, and milk. The Frappuccino is also topped with whipped cream and honey sugar sprinkles.

I have tried the iced version of it. I have to say it was pretty good. However, you don’t get much of a honey taste unless you make sure to stir your coffee as you drink it, because it all settles to the bottom. Otherwise, would I go out of my way to order it probably not, but every once in a while I might order it.
